I'm assuming a 1.87 since you are into 14+" props and not 13+" props which would be the smaller 4" dia. housing, 1.76 gear ratio on your engine to prop. With that said, per (
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1axsbSmCOZZBLIE6TUahFbAIbenrB3fn3ehb6G698FmE/edit?usp=sharing) your slip is 11% which isn't all that bad considering other boat, hull conditions, mounting, and setup factors, without regard to engine problems.
The tunnel hull isn't your best planing surface....a flat board is the best. I think your engine tops out at 5600 RPM for max rating and your 5k is at the bottom of the range where you are near "lugging" the engine which is not good for it. Dropping to a 19 should give you around 600 RPM and provide the following results...more or less:

A 20 would be better if you find one with similar characteristics to your current prop. On the 7% slip number, I doubt that would be obtainable with a tunnel but changing props is always a crap shoot.
